Explanation:

The umbilical cord link the mother and the baby throughout the pregnancy. It consists of two arteries and a vein, which carry the nutrients and oxygen that the baby needs to develop healthily. The umbilical cord is cut after delivery so that the child begins to breathe autonomously. In general, it is cut a few seconds after the birth of the baby, when the infant begins to breathe independently.
